Over 400 Megabytes of Killer Percussion for Your Kurzweil!
This CD-ROM is a remarkable achievement in the endless quest to replicate real drums kits from a keyboard or MIDI drum controller. The stunning ambient realism provided in each file is due to a number of exciting synthesizer and sample techniques. Over 400 megabytes of data! Over 1,200 new samples in full stereo! Rock, funk, jazz, Latin, country, reggae, GM kits and more, plus raw samples that let you create your own kits!
Every single drum in every kit was recorded in true stereo, which adds a level of realism and fullness that simply cannot be match with mono samples. Some of these kits were recorded in a fairly dry room and close mic'd while others were sampled in live rooms with the mics pulled back just a bit to emphasize the ambience.
Another revolutionary new technique is the use of Sweetwater's exclusive "8 Velocity Layer Keymaps." These specially recreated keymaps contain eight full layers with each layer being triggered by velocities from ppp through fff. And, even though these keymaps offer eight different ways of playing a sample, they still only need one program layer!
